I made them like that the first time and while I thought they were wonderful, I also wondered what it would be like with more of the crunchy stuff (which I love!).

I experimented and also tried placing another wonton wrapper on top of the crab mixture, enclosing completely.

Then cook it for the remaining 6-8 minutes, or until golden brown.
